To make LibreSource Synchronizer ignore some files, you have to edit the .ignore.so6 located in the workspace directory. This file contains a sequence of regular expression.

Backslashes, escapes, and quoting
The backslash character ('') serves to introduce escaped constructs, as defined in the table above, as well as to quote characters that otherwise would be interpreted as unescaped constructs. Thus the expression \\ matches a single backslash and { matches a left brace.
It is an error to use a backslash prior to any alphabetic character that does not denote an escaped construct; these are reserved for future extensions to the regular-expression language. A backslash may be used prior to a non-alphabetic character regardless of whether that character is part of an unescaped construct.
Backslashes within string literals in Java source code are interpreted as required by the Java Language Specification as either Unicode escapes or other character escapes. It is therefore necessary to double backslashes in string literals that represent regular expressions to protect them from interpretation by the Java bytecode compiler. The string literal "b", for example, matches a single backspace character when interpreted as a regular expression, while "\\b" matches a word boundary. The string literal "(hello)" is illegal and leads to a compile-time error; in order to match the string (hello) the string literal "\\(hello\\)"
must be used.Character Classes
Character classes may appear within other character classes, and may be composed by the union operator (implicit) and the intersection operator (&&). The union operator denotes a class that contains every character that is in at least one of its operand classes. The intersection operator denotes a class that contains every character that is in both of its operand classes.
The precedence of character-class operators is as follows, from highest to lowest:
1 Literal escape x 2 Grouping [...] 3 Range a-z 4 Union [a-e][i-u] 5 Intersection [a-z&&[aeiou]]
Note that a different set of metacharacters are in effect inside a character class than outside a character class. For instance, the regular expression . loses its special meaning inside a character class, while the expression - becomes a range forming metacharacter.
Line terminators
A line terminator is a one- or two-character sequence that marks the end of a line of the input character sequence. The following are recognized as line terminators:
- A newline (line feed) character ('n'),
- A carriage-return character followed immediately by a newline character ("rn"),
- A standalone carriage-return character ('r'),
- A next-line character ('u0085'),
- A line-separator character ('u2028'), or
- A paragraph-separator character ('u2029).
If UNIX_LINES
mode is activated, then the only line terminators
recognized are newline characters.
The regular expression . matches any character except a line
terminator unless the DOTALL
flag is specified.
By default, the regular expressions ^ and $ ignore
line terminators and only match at the beginning and the end, respectively,
of the entire input sequence. If MULTILINE
mode is activated then
^ matches at the beginning of input and after any line terminator
except at the end of input. When in MULTILINE
mode $
Groups and capturing
Capturing groups are numbered by counting their opening parentheses from left to right. In the expression ((A)(B(C))), for example, there are four such groups:
1 ((A)(B(C))) 2 (A) 3 (B(C)) 4 (C)
Group zero always stands for the entire expression.
Capturing groups are so named because, during a match, each subsequence of the input sequence that matches such a group is saved. The captured subsequence may be used later in the expression, via a back reference, and may also be retrieved from the matcher once the match operation is complete.
The captured input associated with a group is always the subsequence that the group most recently matched. If a group is evaluated a second time because of quantification then its previously-captured value, if any, will be retained if the second evaluation fails. Matching the string "aba" against the expression (a(b)?)+, for example, leaves group two set to "b". All captured input is discarded at the beginning of each match.
Groups beginning with (? are pure, non-capturing groups that do not capture text and do not count towards the group total.
